Now the Lord is the Spirit,
and where the Spirit of the Lord is,
there is freedom.
2 Corinthians 3:1
MOUNTAIN VIEW CHURCH
RESTORATION MINISTRY
We meet many Christians today who are hurting or feeling stuck. Many are wondering if this is all there is or if the church can help. Maybe you struggle with past trauma, anxiety, anger, doubts or relationship difficulties... you are not alone.
These are difficult times.
Scripture says, "The righteous perish, and no one takes it heart. The devout are taken away and no one understands," Isaiah 57:1. The word 'perish' is translated from the Hebrew word 'abad' which means 'to wander away, lose oneself, break, destroy, not escape, fail, lose, be undone, have no way to flee'.
Jesus told us that in this life, we would have trouble but not to worry because the victory is His. He says that we can find peace in Him, John 16:33.
We are instructed by God to be sober minded and watchful because we have an enemy, the devil, who prowls around like a lion seeking those he can devour, 1 Peter 5:8.
We are never more vulnerable to the devil’s schemes than when we are young or when we have been hurt by those who were supposed to love and protect us. When we get hurt, we can begin to partner with lies about God and ourselves which take us further away from the truth of God’s love and the abundant life He promises.
“The thief comes to steal kill and destroy. But I have come that you would have life and life to the full.” ~ Jesus in John 10:10.
The Restoration Ministry at MVC is a team of vetted and trained volunteers that have gone through the ministry themselves and want to help others as they have been helped through inner healing prayer.
We take to heart those who are struggling and walk alongside them to Jesus who binds up the broken hearted and sets the captive free. He restores them with His truth and love, Isaiah 61:1-3.
Isaiah 57:14 says, "Build up, build up, prepare the road! Remove the obstacles out of the way of my people."
It is our desire to help you remove the obstacles in your road that are keeping you from experiencing the abundant life Jesus promises and hindering you from being all He designed you to be. You don't have to do this alone. The church has something to offer you - hope, freedom and love.
We look forward to praying with you,
The Restoration Team at MVC

KEYS TO FREEDOM
- Know the Truth About God
He is the Rock, His works are perfect, and all His ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright
and just is He (Deut. 32:4).
- Know Your Identity in Christ
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now
live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me (Gal. 2:20).
- Renew Your Mind
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - His good, pleasing and perfect will (Rom. 12:2).
- Combat Lies with Truth
For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ (2 Cor. 10:3-5).
- Exercise Your Authority in Christ
Jesus called His twelve disciples to Him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness... proclaim this message: The kingdom of heaven has come near... (Matt. 10:1, 7).
- Know Your Weapons of Warfare
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 6:12 and
The Armor of God in 6:13-18).
